When I get work doing what I trained to do and love as an actor, it is nothing but pleasure which is why so many of us will do it for free. When I get work doing humanist funeral celebrant work, it is an honour - the money is less than hourly wage so I certainly don't do it for the money. When I am doing my other occasional work which means I get to go round all of London on my motorcycle, the work itself is not so much fun but the motorcycling and seeing so much of different corners of all of London is brilliant. Let's see - what else do I do for work - oh that'll do for now. Being self employed does have its advantages!

I find it deeply suspicious when people profess to love their jobs. If you wouldn?t much rather be drunk and naked on a beach in the Caribbean than at work you are either mental or up to something or both.


Unless of course your job involves being drunk and naked on a beach in the Caribbean.

Why the Caribbean? Can I substitute Goa?

Edited for lousy spelling.

Definitely pleasure, and hey presto I have a social life and interests.

I had a technical/editing tv job in my 20's & early 30's, and now I've retrained and have

a more creatrive career which should see me into old age, can't imagine retiring, and probably

won't be able to afford to anyway. Unless I want live in a tiny flat with a one bar electric fire in old age!

I have always been happy with my jobs, sure they have had moments where is was not all fun but so what.


I feel sorry for the people who does not like their job given how much time is spend on them. If you would rather

be on a beach why not sell all your assets and move to Goa or some such?

    • I’m basing it on the fact that Jeremy Corbyn had repeatedly and on record said he is against mandatory vaccinations in any situation, and he wouldn’t disclose wether he had the Covid vaccine himself    as I said. Not as bad as his brother but very definitely a bit weird about the whole thing. Just say you had the vaccination Jeremy, say that everyone should and stop being weird in the middle of a global pandemic    it’s the same slippery evasive nonsense about Brexit and him. About Putin poisonings and him.     if you are happy with his evasiveness then you do you.  But there is a reason the country wouldn’t get behind him 
    • It was my understanding that Jeremy Corbyn was embarrassed by his brother and had distanced himself from his brother's views. I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong. Why on earth should "the overall view of that family inform Jeremy's response to the pandemic"? What exactly are you basing that assumption on?
    • I guess it's best to do what most Brits do these days, keep your head down and say nothing! although that's probably why this country is in the mess it is today!  😞
